TFT? CRT? or another TLA? LCD is fine, but you need a special one. These are unfortunately very expensive as they are generally designed for industrial control applications. XCSoar - which can display the gliders now automatically from FLARM - will now run on Windows as well as Pocket PC - that should give you some more choice. Well done on getting your club FLARMed.
